iAd, Cocos2d, and UITapGestureRecognizer

[djohnson]

Has anyone noticed a problem with iAds not receiving clicks when used in a cocos2d game and with a UITapGestureRecognizer. I am having a terrible time with the iAd looking like it responded to the click but the delegate methods are never called. I turned off my UITapGestureRecognizer and it works perfectly! The iAd is setup in the RootViewController class and the GestureRecognizers are setup right before running the scene. I have a bare scene with nothing happening other than a CCLOG showing clicks have been received. I am registered with the touch dispatched to NOT swallow touches. Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks!

More tests have shown that the ADBannerView will respond to taps with a UITapGestureRecognizer, but only after 2 seconds. If I disable to UITapGestureRecognizer, it works 100% of the time on a single quick tap.

Forget it though, spent 10 minutes and got everything working with ccTouchBegan, ccTouchEnded, and ccTouchMoved. I guess ADBannerView sets itself up to receive Tap Gestures also and borks everything up.

I had this same problem so just fyi for anyone else that comes across this if you add this to your gesture recognizer then it wont cancel out the iAd:
tapRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
